Chapter seven hundred and twentieth a brother goes out
Warriors players are indeed still adjusting and adapting.
Not every player is like Li Liang, who has experienced many battles and is not at all nervous when playing the finals.
There is no way, Li Liang has seen too many big scenes in his playoff experience.
In reality, there were two finals, and various historical key playoff battles in the system, and some games were played over and over again.
When these players on the NBA are not even embryos, Li Liang has tried his best to win and glory on the NBA court. You can't compare with this mentality.
Therefore, Li Liang can shoot in the three-point competition just like training in the training hall, and in the finals he can shoot as if he is in a no-man's realm.
This is not a gap in strength, but a gap in realm.
Many people have gradually realized that Li Liang is not the strongest in terms of strength, but his on-the-spot state, psychological quality and tactical qualities are really impressive.
There is no way, this is the power of the system father.
Of course, the discomfort of Warriors players is only temporary. They can win the first place in the regular season and make it all the way to the finals, but it is not a walk.
The Warriors quickly played a beautiful cooperation.
Green held the ball at the high position and Barnes came out to catch the ball and passed the ball to Bogut, who was in the low position on the left.
It felt like Bogut was going to play a single at a low post, but on the weak side, Curry suddenly ran back and cut into the basket.
Li Liang was against Green at a high position, and Granger was taken away by Barnes, and the basket was empty.
Bogut looked back at the moon and passed the ball to Curry. After Curry swung away Hill with a fake move, he easily threw a throw with one hand and hit the board and scored two points.
Very excellent pass and cut cooperation, the Warriors' pass and cut are unique when the league plays the pick and roll.
Even so, Li Liang still wants to mock Curry, "Why don't you deduct one of the empty baskets?"
Just kidding, if you make a mistake, you will get one more deducted.
Curry smiled and ignored Li Liang at all.
This is a huge challenge for the Pacers' defense, who have never encountered such a team of tactical literacy in the East.
Whether it is a bull or a knight, to be honest, there is basically no good way to face the tightly-stealed people in the Pacers.
The Pacers' defense was very stable throughout the Eastern Conference playoffs, which is the fundamental reason why they only lost two games in the three-round series.
Another reason is of course that Li Liang's desire for the ultimate victory and caution, and never misses any chance to win.
Three playoff trips, Lakers, Clippers, Pacers, and only lose two games a year in the division series.
You can't even replace Jordan with this kind of dominance, after all, Jordan doesn't change jobs.
The Warriors' offense is still quite restrained against man-to-man defense.
At the same time, the Warriors' defensive intensity also increased. The whole audience shouted "defence". Hill broke through with the ball and was almost intercepted. He passed it to JR Smith on the wing. Smith held the ball and wanted to break through, but he felt that he couldn't break through with Klay Thompson's defense.
At this time, Li Liang started to bypass and scored the ball from Smith's hand. He took the ball in the bottom corner on the left and then stopped and jumped in... and shot again!
16:16, Li Liang scored 16 points at the beginning.
No one in the Pacers can score except Li Liang.
But the Warriors could not stop Li Liang from getting points at all. His opening condition was so good that he exploded.
This ball Green exposed his weaknesses in defense.
The footsteps can keep up, but the height and wingspan are not enough to cause little to be disturbed to the shooting.
The defense method is biased towards the inside and the outside defense skills are not enough, so there is no good way to stop Li Liang's breakthrough.
Cole paced back and forth on the sidelines with his hands in his chest. All he could do now was wait and wait for Li Liang's touch to cool down.
Sometimes when facing the explosion of superstars, you have to pray for a little luck.
Cole's head is also quite iron. Anyway, he just doesn't want to double-team and doesn't want to use triple defense. He just needs to fight against Li Liang and Pacers on offense.
Later, Green caused Granger to make a defensive foul in the offense, and made both free throws.
The Warriors' offensive efficiency is obviously recovering, and their offensive choices and cooperation are completely different from those of the Eastern Conference teams, which makes the Pacers' players a little uncomfortable.
Then, Bogut scored another steal in defense, and Li Liang's pass to McGee was seen through.
Bogut's defensive efficiency in the first quarter was really high.
But Curry's counterattack with the ball was not successful. His high throw layup after entering the basket was interfered with by McGee.
Li Liang grabbed the backcourt rebound and counterattacked, and passed it to JR-Smith. Smith made a breakthrough and layup resulted in a wrong way.
Klay Thompson won the backcourt rebound, pushed the ball into the frontcourt, and turned around and jumped back after entering the basket.
It's too difficult, but I still haven't entered.
It was Li Liang's rebound, which was again passed to the frontcourt. This time it was Hill who received the ball, and made a 45-degree three-point jump shot from the left - but the basket was not touched, and he rebounded on the rebound and was taken by the Warriors player.
As the Warriors counterattacked, Curry didn't make a long three-pointer from the left...
Li Liang was speechless after seeing it. Can you give me some excitement?
That's it? You don't even enter?
In fact, except for Li Liang, everyone on the field has not opened it and is tense.
The other four Pacers were tighter than the Warriors players. Hill's shooting movements were deformed, and he knew that the ball was unpredictable as soon as he shot.
Seeing that the Pacers were not scoring any points except Li Liang, Bird called a timeout.
With an 8-point lead, the five minutes of the game were basically "Li Liang taught you to play the finals."
Bird called for a timeout, but on the bench it was mainly Li Liang, and then Kevin Garnett added.
The two of them praised each other and taught the others that the Walker.
"Attack the basket, if you feel that you are not sure about taking action, please make a foul. Be tougher, be tougher, don't avoid it. This is the finals. Dodging will not prevent you from harm, but will only prevent your opponent from getting hurt!"
"He's right, he's right, be more fierce guys!"
After the timeout came back, the lineup of both sides did not change.
On the outside, Granger missed a jump shot with the ball, Li Liang grabbed the frontcourt rebound and passed the ball, and then organized the attack.
Hill broke through and passed the ball to Smith in the corner. Smith broke through the baseline, passed the ball, McGee got the ball, but still missed the layup...
It seems that this crosstalk is not good enough and it doesn't work!
The Warriors counterattacked, Curry passed directly to Bogut at the basket, and Bogut passed the ball to Barnes in the right corner.
Barnes made a three-pointer!
Bogut's performance in the first quarter was simply a pillar-type center.
Maybe it was because he was exposed by Li Liang's fist, Bogut was indeed excellent on both ends of the offense and defense.
But Li Liang immediately counterattacked. After two screens at the high position, a beef entered the basket from the middle and made a layup to cause Bogut's foul.
Bogut almost slapped Li Liang out of the Oracle Arena.
Li Liang got up from the ground and glared at Bogut fiercely, stood on the free throw line, and made both free throws.
18:11, the difference reached 7 points.
At this time, the Pacers players began to gradually find their feelings.
First it was Hill, and in defense it was Curry, a primary school student with a big hat, and a volleyball cap flew away his turn and jump shot.
It is not easy to be suffocated by Hill's big hat.
Li Liang got the ball, and Granger was about to get off the ball. This time he received Li Liang's pass without any hesitation. He no longer thought about avoiding the defense, but rushed in and bumped into Bogut!
Bogut had already committed a foul on his back and dared not take action easily. Granger succeeded in a single-arm dunk!
Immediately, Curry assisted Thompson to make a mid-range jump shot, and Li Liang also passed the ball to McGee after the pick-and-roll. McGee broke into the basket and made a strong slam dunk with both hands!
Li Liang is right. If you rush forward bravely, your opponent will avoid you.
If you retreat and want to avoid it, your opponent will pounce fiercely.
Because Bogut was afraid of fouls, his defensive movements were obviously not released at the beginning.
Walkers have increased their confidence.
The Warriors' cooperation was still very smooth, with continuous transfers from the outside, Barnes broke through the baseline, and passed the ball to Green who cut in.
Green had no chance, so he turned around and sent the ball to Bogut, who followed in the middle, and Bogut's throw was blocked by McGee!
The ball accidentally hit the Pacers player and went out of the baseline, but it was the Warriors' right to the ball.
But this time the defense was very successful. No matter how the Warriors transfer the outside, the defense did not lose.
McGee even gave a big hat, making Bogut, who had performed well before and was quite arrogant, look dirty.
Taking advantage of this dead ball opportunity, Cole made personnel adjustments and replaced Harris Barnes with Iguodala.
Chapter completed!
